Tre Bicchieri in New York City

Tre Bicchieri 2014 was February 6 at the Metropolitan Pavilion on West 18th Street. The event featured a huge array of Italy's best wines. Hundreds of attendees -- including wine press, wine trade, and wine collectors-- sampled wines from all over Italy, from the Veneto to Sardinia. The event was sponsored by Gambero Rosso, which awarded the best wines a one to three cup rating, with three cups (tre bicchieri) being the top honors.

Gambero Rosso began as a publishing house with magazines, guides, wine, cookery and travel books. In recent years, the organization expanded to include the Cities of Taste in Rome and Naples dedicated to exploring the vast universe of Italian food and wine.
